Background

Migrating the Disqus comments into Drupal would also be acceptable, but unfortunately that functionality isn't already built

GEO was able to produce an XML file of Disqus comments - https://gitlab.com/agaric/sites/geo/uploads/e75ff2cad459ba484e2ca302d84e34de/grassrootseconomicorganizing-2019-07-31T16_33_12.788414-all.xml.gz

Work Required

Determine level of effort to properly migrate comments
If two hours or less, migrate, otherwise we won't bring over the comments ( Clayton confirmed that GEO is ok with that)

Hi Josh, i don't think we have whatever sort of admin login to Disqus we'd need to look into the reconnecting (and to maybe get a total count of comments in Disqus to see if a manual migration might be in order).

Thanks!

Drew Oja Jay is probably the one who set up Disqus.

The person who set it up needs to share access or do and send the export.

Met with Josh Davis - GEO will wait to set up disqus - after launch.

Josh should have access to disqus account but will decide on what to do with it soon.

@gnuget if the XML file is enough for you to quickly (2 hours or less) migrate the comments over, let's do it. If it will take more time than that then we won't migrate the comments, which is fine.

Closing this as it's a low priority and we're pressed for time.

@dinarcon Migrating Disqus comments into Drupal 8 would make a fantastic final blog post 😁

Noting for if/when we revisit this in the future:

The comments are in <post> tag that includes a <name> and a <message>... and reference to what node they are attached to in the form of a <thread dsq:id="1967273657" /> style signifier.
The <thread> tags are all the nodes on the site, it seems, even ones that don't have any comments, so we only want to look at ones that are referenced by <posts> (comments), i think. The <thread> tag includes a <id>node/4453</id> with the Drupal internal path it represents.

@gnuget or if you get inspired to apply https://agaric.coop/blog/migrating-xml-files-drupal to a real life use case :-)

Or @wolcen ? :-)

@FreeScholar there's no funding for this, but if a student wanted to try to put any of Mauricio's blog posts - https://agaric.coop/31-days-drupal-migrations - this XML is slightly complex but eminently doable with time and effort.
